Ok, the above was a bit too compromised. The official communication
channels within the project of course also includes the ways the
developers are expected to work together; i.e also bugzilla and the
various required mailing lists.

Whether IRC is official communication channel is more of an interesting
discussion; as it is not a required medium for developers, but it is
definitely close due to the amount of work that is being done over it.

but from a PR perspective the official communication channels are the
website and mailing list announcements (that for us acts as press releases)
